- Full-size printed reference — shows where every color goes
- Step-by-step guide
1. Set up. Clear a table, turn on a good lamp, open the box. That’s it.
2. Paint by number. Find a number on the canvas, find the matching pot, fill it in. Repeat until the numbers disappear.
3. Hang it. Let it dry overnight. Framed kits go straight on the wall — no trip to the frame shop.
Classic (12×16 in) — Done in a few relaxed evenings. Fits any standard 12×16 frame.
Large (16×20 in) — Two-thirds bigger than Classic. Bigger sections, easier to paint, and a finish that looks like gallery art.
Your order arrives in 6–10 business days, tracked and insured door to door.
Follow it any time on our Track Your Order page — just enter your order number.
60 days to change your mind. If the kit isn’t what you expected, send it back. Full refund.
Run out of paint? We send more, free. Every kit ships with extra. If you still run short, just tell us.
Anything falls short, we fix it. Real cotton canvas, high-pigment paint, and brushes that last the whole painting.

Your Next Escape Is Waiting.
01
Something about filling in a small shape with the right color turns the volume down on everything else.
02
Every color has a number, every shape has a home. All you bring is yourself and some time.
03
The best part isn't finishing. It's the next morning, walking past it, and remembering you made that.

Everything you need to start painting tonight.
Here's what's inside every Escape by Numbers box, and how it works.
Paint that Actually Covers
24-36 Paint Pots
Smooth acrylic that goes on even and stays vibrant after it dries.
How It Works
Each paint pot has a number. Find that number on the canvas and fill it in. Then watch your painting come to life.
6 -Detail-ready brushes.
2x the Brushes
Double what other kits include — so when one wears out, you're not painting with a frayed tip.
Switching colors?
Wipe your brush on a wet napkin first, so the new color stays clean.
Real Cotton & Linen Canvas
Pre-Tinted Numbered Canvas
Lightly pre-colored, so you're never staring at a blank white canvas wondering if you'll finish. Real canvas grip and texture — not thin plastic sheet.
Its easy!
You can't mess this up. Wrong spot? Use the reference sheet included to locate the correct number. Then paint over it with the right color!
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you start painting.
Will mine actually look good if I've never painted before?
Every section is numbered. Every paint pot is numbered. You match them — the system does the artistic thinking. Most first-timers are genuinely surprised by how good theirs turns out.
How long does a kit take to finish?
A Small takes most people 3–5 hours. A Medium runs 6–10. Most people split it across a few evenings — it becomes the thing they look forward to after a long day.
Is this something I'll actually finish?
The numbered system creates half the pull. Every section finished makes the next one obvious. People who planned on one session end up doing five.
Is the quality worth the price?
Real cotton/linen canvas, high-pigment paint that covers in one coat, brushes that hold their tip start to finish. You'll feel the difference the moment you unroll the canvas.
What if I run out of paint?
Every kit comes with more than you need. If you ever run short on a color, reach out — we'll send a replacement at no charge.
Can I gift this?
It's one of the better gifts you can give — an experience . Arrives ready to open and start. No setup, nothing extra needed.

Picture pretty but some of my paints were dried out.
I painted this during a snowy weekend and it felt like therapy. The red bird against the winter background is stunning in person.
my mom loves cardinals - she says they mean a loved one is nearby. bought this for her. she cried
Did this while listening to Christmas music and honestly didn’t want it to end.
The colors surprised me. The reds are rich without feeling harsh.
My mom thought it was store bought when she saw it framed 😂
So calming. Perfect winter project.
I love cardinals so this immediately spoke to me. It feels peaceful every time I look at it.

I didn’t rush it and honestly that made it more enjoyable.
The packaging was organized and nothing leaked.
